Yes – try the Occupational Outlook Handbook – it is available in book form or online here

Department of Labor also has those projections at the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

I really like this site. When looking at the info for any occupation, towards the bottom of the page there will be info on projected growth in coming years, and also certain jobs will be listed as “bright outlook” meaning that their growth rate is particularly good.
